Great for when you have thick and thin crust lovers who have a fondness for alliteration.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place a pizza stone onto the floor of the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, toss and shape the dough so that one side has a thick crust and the other thin and it looks like the crumbling Roman Coliseum. Transfer onto a pizza paddle that has been well-dusted with semolina flour. Coat the center of the dough with marinara sauce. Cover with a layer of salami and then the cheese. Place the peppers and avocado in a spoke pattern around the pizza. Scatter over the sausages, pine nuts, and parmesan. Bake until the crust turns golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  3. Share and enjoy with beer or wine or both.
